*Hugh finds a cheap date*

The other day I was hanging out in my room watching E! news, and for some odd reason I started to think about Celebrity men who have turned to coming into physical contact with prostitutes. These are wealthy, attractive, popular, talented men who can have any woman in the world. Why do they choose prostitutes? A better question, is why do they choose to hook up with a prostitute when they have hot celebrity girlfriends? A good example of what I'm talking about can be demonstrated by my man Hugh Grant. Most of us probably know Hugh from his roles in Nine Months, Notting Hill, Mickey Blue Eyes, Two Weeks Notice, Love Actually, or Music and Lyrics.

I would say that Hugh is a very attractive man and he also seems very charming. Maybe these are the guys to stay away from, because they know that they can sweet talk a woman in to believing anything. Hugh was in a 13-year relationship with actress Elizabeth Hurley. They met in 1988, and fell in love. They were always in the spotlight as each of their fame grew. They seemed to be so happy and in love, that no one could imagine what was about to happen. In 1995, Hugh was arrested in a prostitution sting operation. He was arrested for a misdemeanor lewd conduct in a public place with prostitute Divine Brown. He ended up paying a fine of about $1,000, had to complete an AIDS education program, and was on probation for 2 years.

A couple of weeks after his arrest, Hugh kept his already scheduled appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. During his appearance he was of course asked about the incident. He candidly replied, "I think you know in life what's a good thing to do and what's a bad thing, and I did a bad thing. And there you have it." I think a lot of viewers appreciated his honesty and how he didn't deny anything. So now that he seemed to maintain his fame and 'likable' quality, what was going to happen to his relationship with Elizabeth Hurley. Well, they didn't split up in 1995. They actually stayed together for 5 more years before calling it quits. I must say that Elizabeth must be a very strong woman to stay with a guy who betrayed her trust. I would have guessed that with her beauty and talent, that she would move on and ditch him, but I was wrong.

Most men that I hear about cheating on their significant others, or attempting to cheat and getting caught, I really have no tolerance for. But for some reason, I still really like High Grant. I don't know if it is his good looks or british accent that has me hooked, but I just feel like he is such a good guy. I would hope that he learned his lesson to never cheat on his significant other again, but then again, he's friggen Hugh Grant....So it probably doesn't matter. He will always have people wanting to pay him money to be in their films, and women wanting to be his significant other.

Here is a photo of Divine Brown on the night of the arrest, and Elizabeth Hurley. You can see yourself what he risked losing....
